Panorama Malmö

            Since Orkanen is built on land owned by the city of Malmö and is very visible to Malmö residents, near the central station, much thought has been given to the appearance of the building. The hurricane's facade consists of light green glass against a dark green background. The glass causes the green shade to vary from dark green from the front to more light green and shimmering with increased viewing angle. The building has large dark tinted windows. The roof is flat with two box-shaped superstructures in gray sheet metal. The facade is decorated with words and phrases in different languages. They have been developed by the director of the university's Department of Art, Culture and Communication (K3). The idea is that the individual should stop to observe and reflect.

The words that decorate the facade are divided into three parts. The first part is quotes taken from Malmö-born poet Hjalmar Gullberg's poem "Only the real words" and from Malmö rapper Timbuktu's song "Ett brev". The second part reflects Malmö University's international connection, with the words "knowledge" and "freedom" in different languages. The third part is several words such as "listen think talk", "integrity self-esteem pride", "joy seriousness", "empathy perspective" and "brotherhood sisterhood fellow human". The letters, which are 30 centimeters high, are made of stainless steel and have been placed inside the glass. All words and phrases on the facade change expression according to the hours of the day, weather and own movements.

The building is supposed to be able to be used by another tenant if the college does not want to stay after 20 years. Therefore, the Orkanen is simple in its structure, the internal surfaces are large and airy. The ceiling height varies between 3, 6 and 8 metres. The largest premises at Orkanen are the auditorium for 400 people, lecture hall for 200 people, study hall for 100 people and sports hall for 100 people. Orkanen actually consists of six buildings that are built together with five courtyards in between. The building has five floors. It is 150 meters long and 60 meters wide.

Orkanen won the city planning award[clarify] in 2006, when it has become a symbol of Malmö University (then Malmö University) and also of the city's transformation.
